Facilitators of the "Changes of the Greenland Cryosphere (CGC)" workshop
announce an abstract submission extension. The new deadline is
Wednesday, 1 July 2009. For further information, please go to:
http://conferences.dtu.dk/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=22.
The CGC workshop will bring together scientists working on observing and
modeling of current and future changes of the Greenland ice sheet,
glaciers, sea-ice, and permafrost. It will focus on the current rapid
changes, as observed with satellites, aircraft and in-situ networks, and
will bring together scientists from different disciplines (remote
sensing, glaciology, geodesy, geophysics and environmental sciences) for
in-depth discussions on the nature and magnitude of the Greenland ice
sheet, sea ice and permafrost changes, and the underlying causes and
future projections of change.
The CGC workshop is a "precursor event" to the 2009 UN COP15 climate
summit, to be held in Copenhagen and sponsored by the Technical
University of Denmark. CGC is also part of the 2009 "Nuuk Climate Days,"
and will be held parallel to the international "FreshNor" Symposium on
the freshening of the Nordic Seas and a series of talks on the effects
of climate changes on the Greenland environment and society.

travel and accommodation, the "FreshNor" Symposium, and other conference
